My dream cast for Jaguar Sun – the movie

Maya Delaney – Patricia Velasquez

A young Patricia Velasquez would be perfect to play Maya. Originally from an indigenous tribe in Venezuela, Patricia has the perfect combination of Native and Hispanic looks. Factoid: After taking the modeling world by storm, Patricia moved on to acting. In one of her earliest films, she played a character named – you guessed it –Maya! She also has an adopted daughter by the same name.

Matt Caldwell – Ricky Martin

No doubt he has the look I imagined for Matt. He’s Latino, and Matt’s mother is Latino. But he hasn’t acted in a long time. Would he have the chops? Well, I just saw him this week in the revival of Evita on Broadway. Hello! Question answered.

Alyssa Vasquez – Tamara Mello

Tamara Mello has the exact look that I pictured for Lyssa. She’s of Latino descent, and has experience playing edgier characters. Perfect!

Damian Vasquez – Jay Hernandez

I remembered Jay Hernandez from the movie Crazy Beautiful in which he starred with Kirsten Dunst. He’s definitely a seasoned actor at this point. And who says you can’t be smart and hot?
